Donna was born June 1, 1964 in Calgary. She acquired a Diploma and then University Degree in Early Childhood Education.

Donna’s love for God and her Church was undeniable. Nothing was more important to her than helping others, whether it was volunteering with St. Vincent de Paul Society, Inn from the Cold, St. Joseph’s Children’s Liturgy or her family, friends and neighbours. Donna is lovingly remembered by her father Terry; her siblings Sharon (Angelo), Bob (Melanie), Linda (Wes), Andrew (Sue); thirteen nieces and nephews, Michelle, Anthony, Natalie; Chelsea, Owen, Robin (Guin), Desiree (Matt), Kyla; Amanda, Justina, Chantelle, Shayla, Brandon.
